A Kingdom Man – Day 3 “The difference between a successful person and others is not a lack of strength, not a lack of knowledge, but rather a lack of will.” – Vince Lombardi American life changed permanently on September 11, 2001. Terrorists hijacked jetliners and turned them into missiles. In the aftermath, Arizona Cardinals safety Pat Tillman gave up a $3.6 million contract and enlisted in the Army to serve his country. He couldn’t enjoy the spoils of freedom while others did the dirty work to preserve it. His sense of honor and ethics compelled him. Unfortunately Tillman’s decision cost him his life. Men, God’s kingdom will cost you your life. Jesus said, “Whoever wishes to save his life will lose it; but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it” (Mathew 16:25). A kingdom man understand that God never said a godly life would be easy; He just said it would be worth it. A kingdom man zeros in on one purpose only-advancing the kingdom for the betterment of those in it, which glorifies the King. He pursues this at whatever personal cost. Anyone who has fought in war or battled on an athletic field knows that victory does not come just because you want it. Victory is earned only through sweat, guts, and blood, and sheer determination. It comes to those who know that purpose is far greater than pain. Application: 1. How would you describe your purpose? 2. What action can you take today to better the lives of those around you? 3. What steps can you take today to persevere in the battle? Prayer: God, forgive me when my body and spirit grow weak. Fill me with perseverance, no matter how great the pain. Amen! #AKingdomMan
